ETP Consult’s experience includes the following systems:

Power transformers

A basic requirement applying to all transformers is to convey the energy safely to the consumer. Every single transformer is uniquely designed in accordance with individual factors such as voltage, power, loss, climate, system topography, noise level and many more factors.

Reactors

Shunt and series reactors are commonly used in the AC network to limit overvoltage or the short-circuiting current. Both shunt and series reactors play an important role in the modern electricity network as they increase capacity on the long transmission lines.

Gas-isolated switchgear

The systems deliver outstanding results irrespective of climatic conditions. The systems are built with heavy focus on personal safety and they require minimal maintenance.

Air-insulated switchgear

The systems are built with heavy focus on personal safety and they require minimal maintenance.
